Bad credit mortgage companies specialize in lending to people with less than perfect credit to very bad credit, even if they are first-time buyers.

Consider an Interest Only Mortgage to Compensate For the Higher Payment - Many home mortgage lenders offer loans to applicants with poor or bad credit history for interest only home loan mortgages.

This kind of loan can give you the time to fix your credit and qualify for a better interest rate.
